The Vatican Roof Garden apartment in Rome was the PERFECT place for our group. There were six of us (3 couples) and we stayed for 8 days. The location was great which allowed us to walk to most everything we wanted to do in Rome. Francesca the host was so easy to work with and communicated easily. We even worked with Francesca to have a professional chef prepare a wonderful dinner in the apartment for us one evening of our stay, which was fabulous. Very memorable trip - highly recommend the Vatican Roof Garden for your visit to Rome.

We had a wonderful stay at the Vatican Roof Top! Not only was the apartment beautiful and the weather wonderful! We were also blessed to witness a new Pope! Everything was spectacular, thank you for having such a home away from home. The Vatican Roof Top a tremendous place to stay!

Amazing location and accommodations

Locating the building then finding the apartment was challenging, but after that, it was perfect! The common area leaves very little seating, but once we decided to just gather around the dining table, that issue was solved. There is an amazing open market right across the street where you can find anything from food to clothing. Great restaurants we could walk to in minutes. We will return again on our next Rome adventure.

Great location, exquisite apartment, roof top views

We throughly enjoyed our stay. Apartment is located just outside the Vatican City. You are close to metro, hop on hop off bus and you can walk everywhere. We enjoyed the neighbourhood restaurants. Had we stayed longer we would have taken advantage of the rooftop to bbq, to eat and to sunbathe. The bedrooms were comfortable and the showers and baths were lovely. Would not hesitate to recommend.

Perfect location

Our family of 6 adults appreciated the apartment was in a more residential area. We were a short walk to the Vatican and an easy Metro ride to the Colosseum, but enjoyed being away from the crowds. The multiple and well appointed bathrooms were especially nice. The beds were adequate.

Great location and apartment

We really enjoyed the apartment and neighborhood. Located near the Vatican and many great restaurants right below the apartment for breakfast. We found some great osterias that we went two nights in a row. The apartment was perfect for our family. Very clean and convenient. We were able to have breakfast and snacks in the apartment. We would definitely come back

Highly recommend!

Our family of six (ages 18, 16, 14 & 12) stayed here during Thanksgiving 2023. Everyone loved the apartment! I picked this property because of the number of rooms and the 3 *beautiful* en-suite bathrooms. When we arrived, it was even better than the pictures. The light coming into the apartment is beautiful, as it is south-facing. The kitchen is stocked. The neighborhood is mostly locals/few tourists, convenient to bus & metro, pleasant, walkable, safe. There are several terrific restaurants and cafés just steps from the apartment, and a supermarket about a block away. The apartment is on the first floor (one floor above ground.) There is an elevator, old style and tiny, but does the job! Francesca was very responsive and great to work with. I would recommend this property to all of my friends and family.
